Mice - 21st Sep 2012 8:41pm
We have got a bit of a mice problem in our garden,there are a lot of them about this year apparently.With having two dogs I didn't want to put poison down so I went on the net to look for a safe alternative and came across this innovative idea,put down trays of instant mash potato,the theory being that when they eat it,it will rupture their tiny tums when it expands.Well let me tell you that it doesn't work.The mice started to look as though they were on anabolic steroids and I'm sure word got around that there was free food at our house.So I'm afraid I went back to basics and started using mouse traps baited with peanut butter,now that works but it's not for the squeamish.I hope this helps others in a similar situation.
